Central Perth has smaller lots and some heritage areas, so check the planning rules for your property before you design.
My Patio designs, documents and builds patios in Perth and surrounding suburbs, and looks after the paperwork from the first sketch to the final inspection.
We build skillion patios, gable patios, flat roof patios, pergolas, gazebos and carports. Call 0420 361 450 for a free quote.
In Western Australia, most patios, pergolas, carports and similar structures need a building permit before work starts. In Perth, applications go to the City of Perth. Your design also has to meet the planning rules for your lot, such as boundary setbacks and open space, and some structures need extra approvals, so it pays to check early.
My Patio designs and builds your new gable patio, skillion patio, flat roof patio, carport, pergola or gazebo, and prepares the drawings and documents for your City of Perth building application.
Building permit: across Western Australia a freestanding patio of up to 10 m² and 2.4 m high generally does not need a building permit, but larger patios, taller ones and patios attached to a house do. Councils can set extra rules.
Planning approval: needed where the design does not meet the Residential Design Codes or the local planning policy, for example on setbacks or open space.
